A conspicuous emission line at 6 keV was also found in the Suzaku J1759-3450 spectrum. Assuming the emission line to be K emission from He-like Fe ions, we inferred Suzaku J1759-3450 to be an extragalactic object located at z = 0.13. The radial profile of the surface brightness in the 0.5-10 keV band was explained well with an isothermal beta-model of r_c = 1.61' and beta = 0.78. The X-ray spectrum was well reproduced by an optically-thin thermal plasma with the electron temperature of kT_e = 5.3 keV attenuated by the photoelectric absorption of N_H = 2.3 x 10^21 cm^-2. The bolometric X-ray luminosity of L_X (r < r_500) = 4.3 x 10^44 erg s^-1 is consistent with that expected from the L_X-T relation of clusters of galaxies. In terms of the spatial extent, the X-ray spectrum, and the bolometric luminosity of the X-ray emitting gas, we concluded that Suzaku J1759-3450 is a new cluster of galaxies.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-06-06T11:43:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "galactic bulge", "x-ray spectrum", "rosat bright source catalogue", "x-ray source", "bolometric x-ray luminosity" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1093/pasj/65.5.102", "journal": "Publications of the Astronomical Society of Japan", "year": 2013, "month": "Oct", "volume": 65, "pages": 102 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1237207, "adsabs": "2013PASJ...65..102M" } } }
